Tyson Fury has announced his rematch with Deontay Wilder will take place in Las Vegas on 22 February.

The pair's first fight in December 2018 ended in a controversial draw, with Fury outboxing WBC heavyweight champion Wilder despite suffering two knockdowns.

And the duo will lock horns again at the MGM Grand Garden Arena next year.

Fury tweeted: "It's on! Feb. 22 at MGM Grand Garden Arena, watch me knock out Deontay Wilder AKA The Big Dosser."

Wilder tweeted: "After February 22nd there will be no more unanswered questions.

"I will finish what I started, and this time @Tyson--Fury will not be getting up off that canvas so quickly. I've proven myself time and time again and I will do it again in February. #WilderFury2."
